BE AN AUTHOR! WRITE YOUR OWN BOOKS! YOU ARE NEVER TOO YOUNG OR TOO OLD, TO START!
THE VERY TALENTED SAMANTHA RODGERS, AUTHOR, POET AND SONG WRITER, VISITED OUR SCHOOL, ON FRIDAY TO MOTIVATE AND INSPIRE OUR PUPILS AND STAFF TO WRITE THEIR OWN STORIES ESPECIALLY IF THEY DO NOT SEE THE STORIES WHICH THEY WANT TO READ ABOUT, ON BOOK SHELVES IN BOOK STORES.
SHE WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH ALL OUR PUPILS' (FROM KS1 AND KS 2) FOCUS AND HIGH LEVELS OF PARTICIPATION.
"I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO WRITE AND TELL THE STORIES I WANTED TO SEE ON THE BOOK SHELVES, BUT I WAS AFRAID OF BEING A FAILURE - NOW THAT I HAVE STARTED, I WILL NEVER STOP. ALWAYS REMEMBER - NEVER GIVE UP ON YOUR DREAMS! "
SHE ENCOURAGED EVERYONE TO GIVE THEIR BEST AND TO LEARN AND GROW AND EMBRACE HARD CHALLENGES. WHAT AN INSPIRATION SHE WAS!! THANKS TO OUR HUMANITIES LEAD, MS. OPOKU, FOR INVITING AUTHOR, SAMANTHA, AS PART OF OUR BLACK HISTORY MONTH MOTIVATIONAL ACTIVITIES.
